Why This Record Matters
Fickle Heart is the debut album by Sniff 'N' The Tears and features “Driver's Seat,” the band’s signature international hit and a US Top 20 single. Paul Roberts provides lead vocals and acoustic guitar and wrote the album’s material, with Luigi Salvoni producing. The record combines late-1970s rock songwriting with the new-wave sound associated with the band’s breakthrough.
